  • Page 2 With ownership of an AMAZONE fertiliser broadcaster comes automatic access to AMAZONE’s ‘’fertiliser testing service“ to enable the spreader to be operated in the most cost effective and environmentally safe manner. AMAZONE’s ‘’fertiliser testing service“ determines the individual spreading characteristics of a specific batch of fertiliser from a 3 kg fertiliser sample received and provides setting recommendations at the exact working width required.

    1. Store fertiliser properly (i.e. in a dry place and separated by type and manufacturer). 2. Set the machine from either data found in this setting chart or according to recommendations provided by AMAZONE's fertiliser testing service. 3. Prior to starting spreading conduct a spread rate check.

  • Page 13: Setting The Working Width

    Setting the working width The individual spreading characteristics of the fertiliser have a big influence on the working width. The spreading properties mainly depend on granule size, bulk density, surface finish and humidity. Depending on the relevant kind of fertiliser the “Omnia-Set” spreading discs (Fig. 1) enable the setting to different working widths.
